One of the biggest hurdles for me is the gap in medical coverage and uncertainty of what is covered next. I have a genetic condition that requires very expensive medication. Jumping jobs and hoping COBRA payments aren't insane is a big risk, so I don't feel confident jumping quickly between jobs if one doesn't work out.
